Blackstone Parmesan Garlic Fries are a delicious way to take your frozen fries up a notch and turn them into a crispy, cheesy side dish with minimal effort. Made on a hot griddle, these fries get extra crunch from avocado oil and bold flavor from garlic and two kinds of Parmesan. Cooking on a Blackstone griddle gives you an even golden crust and helps the garlic butter infuse every bite. This recipe is perfect for casual dinners, parties, or as a side to burgers and sandwiches.

FAQ
How should I store leftover Parmesan Garlic Fries?
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. They will lose some crispness but can be reheated.
How do I reheat these fries?
Reheat on the Blackstone, in an oven, or in your air fryer at 375°F until hot and crispy. Avoid microwaving as it will make the fries soggy.
Can I prepare this recipe ahead of time?
You can cook the fries partially in advance and finish them with the garlic butter and Parmesan just before serving for maximum flavor.
What substitutions can I use?
Olive oil can replace avocado oil, and pre-minced garlic works in a pinch. If you prefer, swap parsley with basil or thyme for a different herb twist.
